It’s no secret that the global economy has been slowing. The ongoing U.S./China trade war is dragging on the globe’s first and second-largest economies and there currently does not appear to be an agreement in the making. The current economic expansion is getting quite long in the tooth, and the effects of tax cuts and government spending are likely to fade in the months ahead. Some analysts have already begun sounding the alarm bells about the next recession, which could come sooner than many anticipate.... Continue Reading

Following some recent declines, the gold market has not accomplished much thus far in 2019. Although many of the so-called “experts” may pounce on this fact, we see it as a significant positive for the market. Not only is it a positive, but it could potentially be indicative of a major rally on the horizon. Here’s why we can count on gold resilience: Gold has endured a stronger dollar: Typically, the dollar and gold have a negative correlation. That is to say that when the... Continue Reading

The gold market has seen some significant dips in recent weeks. The market’s lack of upside follow-through combined with a breakdown below previous support levels has some pundits looking for further downside. As discussed in a recent post, large declines should not be feared but rather welcomed. A simple yet powerful strategy may look to buy heavier on any significant dips in price – say 5% or more. Although adding ounces on a regular basis is a great thing, buying heavier on such dips can... Continue Reading

Investors currently have a lot to digest and the financial media hasn’t helped. Stocks are in melt-up mode as earnings thus far have been strong and as key benchmarks carve out fresh all-time highs. The dollar has also followed suit and could potentially be headed for another leg higher. Risk appetite is strong while market volatility continues to probe lower. Financial Media Hyping Gold Declines As far as gold goes, there has been considerable talk of how it has been “broken” technically. The 200-day moving... Continue Reading

The gold market has been under pressure in recent days, and prices are trading at their lowest point of the year. Numerous “analysts” have already covered gold’s fall through support in the $1280-$1290 region and have suggested that lower prices may be in store. For the patient, long-term investor, this is a positive that should be welcomed. The notion of buy low, sell high is not new and has served investors well for ages. Are You Considering Lower Prices or Good Value? Long-term investors should... Continue Reading

Central bank demand for gold reportedly hit the highest levels in 2018 since the end of the Bretton Woods system of dollar convertibility in 1971. With some analysts referring to gold as some type of meaningless relic, this begs the question of why the biggest financial institutions on the planet are looking to acquire even more gold. Store of Value Gold has a very long history as a reliable store of wealth and value. In the post-Bretton Woods era and without a return to some... Continue Reading

The recent rise in gold has been widely discussed in financial media. There have been numerous issues attributed to gold’s rise including the U.S./China trade war, an increasingly-dovish Fed, a slowing economy and a rising risk of recession. One issue-albeit one you probably have not heard about yet-is the increasing risk of stagflation. The phrase stagflation was first used in Great Britain and today is understood to mean a period in which prices rise without a corresponding increase in demand. During a period of stagflation,...

When it comes to making the most of an investment in gold, there is really one simple rule of thumb to follow: Buy as much as you can. With a long-term view and long-term objectives, the more bullion you can acquire the better. Not only does this strategy on how to make the most of an investment in gold provide the most upside appreciation potential, but it comes with other potential benefits as well. Higher Prices: Simple math tells you that the more gold you... Continue Reading

The Federal Reserve has demonstrated that it is incapable of weaning the stock market off Fed-stimulus. This begs the question of whether the central bank has any credibility left as an inflation fighter and independent institution. The central bank began “treating” the market years ago. The Federal Reserve began with an initial round of QE, and when that didn’t work, it proceeded to provide additional injections in the form of QE2 and later QE3. Even that wasn’t enough, and the Fed was also forced to... Continue Reading

Another Week Another Fed Meeting After finally breaking through key resistance around the $1,300 area last week, the gold market is taking a bit of a breather in early action today. The market appears poised for further upside, and a solid close above resistance or several consecutive closes above could add credibility to the recent breakout. The market will have numerous issues to contend with this week, including the end of the government shutdown, corporate earnings and the Fed meeting on Wednesday. Gold may see... Continue Reading
